I Can Make This Promise

After dinner, Edie and her parents visit Golden Gardens, a park in Seattle that they take her to when something is bothering her. Edie draws the land on the horizon and the beach in her drawing pad, adding Bruno the dog to the image. She is still unsure whether to tell her parents about the box she found in the attic. Serenity texts her and advises her to ask her parents about the issue, but she hides the message from them. She feels frustrated by her inability to capture the landscape in front of her.

On July 6, Amelia texts Edie to ask that she wait until they are together to read more of Edith’s letters. Edie feels conflicted but agrees. She takes the box down to her room to avoid making her parents more suspicious. At breakfast, Edie’s parents remind her that she will be getting braces the next day.

Edie tells her parents that Amelia dislikes her idea of making a film about Bruno. They are surprised, but Edie reminds them that they did not like the real Bruno either.
